[QUOTE="Shootin4fun, post: 776003, member: 28741"] Has anyone compared the TSX performance on deer, elk, or pigs with Hornady's GMX? I have shot a hundreds of rounds of Barnes TSX in a couple of calibers while developing accurate loads and testing drop, etc. But I have not hunted with them yet. I am planning a pig hunt here in Calf. and will be depending on the 130gr TSX out of my 270. I have even considered the 85gr TSX out of the 243, considering how hard these bullets are supposed to be. A guide told me a 243 with TSX will punch through their shoulder and go deep just fine. I also have some GMX on the shelf and am wondering if experience out there tells of better performance over the TSX. Barnes seem to be the most expensive thing out there and hence "should" perform as good or better than the others. With the current bullet and primer hording that's going on, Barnes and Nosler are the ONLY bullets left on Cabellas or Scheels shelves in Reno. (no lead free zone up here either) Its weird to see all Hornady and Sierra bins empty in ALL calibers. [/QUOTE]
